29 to 35 D29 pH problems. 5.8 in the tank and 6.1-6.3 in the pots. Im guessing the pebbles weren't washed properly. D29 New light who dis? D31 Did some training this week. New light is really making these plants grow. Got it at 420w 😎 about 20" from the tops. D34 Woke up, plants don't look too good. I changed too many variables to know what caused it. I put everything back to what it was and I'm going to chill out a bit.

36 to 42 Tuesday Day 36 Been seeing pistils about 4 days now. Going to let the autopots drain out and start quarter bloom nutes. D37 Started 1/4 nutes @ 680ppm (see above) D38 Lights from 450w to 475w at 16-20". VPD on point. Just keeping canopy even right now. Supercroping the main stem for the third time. Feels like plant abuse now. D39 They are thirsty. Will start filling the res more with more water. Lowered GROW from 100% to 50% Increased BLOOM from 25% to 50% Increased mix from 680ppm to 720ppm mid week. All other ratios remain the same as above. Solo Cup seeing slight burn @ 680ppm. I was expecting it. Dropping down to ~550 for a bit. D40 Lights increased from 475w to 500w. Will most likely move the fixture closer and drop the wattage back down with that uniform coverage!!! #geekbeast D42 Res is empty again. Decreased GROW from 50% to 25% strength Increased BLOOM, ASTRO and N.CANDY from 25% to 50% 720ppm Happy Halloween!!

Day 43 to 49 Tuesday Bumping up the flower nutes still. Starting off the week at the listed feeding. Hoping to be on full bloom by next week. D43 Plants are getting tall. Lowered lights from 500w to 450w. D44 Stretch is still going on. Put a scrog net but decided to wait until tomorrow to push it down a bit. Lights back to 500w @ 16-18" from canopy. Environment is on point, im going to start pushing the lights and see how big these babies get D45 Res empty. I reverted back to last week's feeding schedule. 100% grow and back to 25% bloom, astro and n.candy. I was seeing some signs of PK overdose like last grow. Note to self: stop being influenced by other grow diaries D46 The res is almost empty again. Looks like I'll be eventually filling this thing daily. Wow I'm going to be going through a ton of nutrients Lights are 14-18 inches from the tops, at 520watts. D47 Refilled res. Still at 1/4 bloom. 720ppm D49 Refilled Res. Signs of cal def. Spotted leaves on GC4. She is the biggest, upped the dose of magnifical from 1.25x to 1.5x. Also back up to 50% bloom and down to 50% grow. 1.5x calmag 1.25x velokelp 0.5x Grow 0.5x Astro, N.Candy, Bloom 1x micro, terpinator, 830ppm

Day 50 to 56 Tuesday Day 50 Still on the half bloom from yesterday. Almost done stretch. Balanced the canopy. Lights are 12-14" from the lights at 450w which is ~700 umol. Seeing little rust spots. I think it's Cal def? Added magnifical up to 920ppm. D51: I believe I have been hitting too hard with nutes :) added water to res and back down to 720ppm. Got advice that I'm probably dealing with PK overdose and it adds up. D52 Problem is no longer progressing as quickly, however still some signs. D53 Res nearly empty. Added water down to 350ppm till empty. D54 Problem appears to be better but still feeding slow. 🤑. D55 Flushed the solo cup. Refed at 500ppm full bloom. Fed rest at 500ppm full bloom. D56 Another quick day at 500ppm and tomorrow I'll bump to 650ppm.

Sorry been slow on the updates. Been a little busy recently and plants are on autopilot. D85 to D91 Tuesday D87: Most likely will chop em down tomorrow. 820ppm till I kill them. D91 Changed my mind. Leaving them a few more days. Lots of deep red hairs forming.

There's soooooo much and it smells great. I had a 3x3 for drying but resorted to just drying in the grow tent since I'm not sure if it would have all fit. I will not be using a SCROG especially with Autopots and this light as it leaves no room for me to get in and train. Will post final results in ~10 days or so. See you on the next one
